  • SUPER DOOPER !!!!

    I saw a bit of Bowie, in the solo

  • Just another reminder of how much this tune runs through my head, even months after I heard it last. Funny how some of the best music of our times can only be found on youtube...

  • Wow, i ignored your videos because I only thought you did John Lennon covers. My bad. This is great, man.

    I have to admit, that music made me cream my pants, just a little.

    Sorry if that freaks you out, I just REALLY like good music.

    (PS - I did'nt really cream my pants. Joking for all you dumbasses who actually believed.)

  • LoL ... Thanks so much ;) Glad to have you aboard !

  • loved it. thanks.

  • Good song.

  • I see alot of potential in your art. All around a nice blend of music and pictures with a message. This is very good but your best is still to come. Try to balance your pain with a little sunshine.

  • absolutely awesome

    that was very good

    i dont know what to ssay

  • revolutionest ROCK N ROLL!

  • the musics great but i can't take any of the videos seriously, and 'the final prophecy' is kinda corny

  • Shoot David, Change your format to make Walrus Happy! LMAO.

  • I love you guys

  • You guys are cool. Real talent. Thanks keep going.

  • I like this a lot. Great melody...very rare these days. I love the horn parts in the second half. Smart lyrics, sophisticated. Good production. I'd love to see this be a huge hit song. I love the look of the singer too. Very not there.

    5 stars. Faved too.

  • wow ! what song ! is beauty

    purpletreeband the true artist is one that surpasses itself each time it expresses its art

    and for me you are a great of the greatest artist and you rememberme to the artist John Lenon and his group The Beatles

  • Thanks, guys, for a profoundly moving song and video. I really love your blend of classic rock/psychedelia and your own unique edge. 5 stars all the way. Keep up the great work!

  • I can't get over how awesome this song is!!! Purple Tree Band may very well be the greatest band of all time...

  • Purple Tree= Pink Floyd?

    You have a nice style.

  • I really enjoyed your music vid.Keep up the good work. :)

    Richard

  • Very good song

  • Hey,

    Not bad...good song, but DO NOT allow people to compare you to Pink Floyd or any other band. You have to be your own person with your own sound if you are going to make it...Pink Floyd already happened, you have to establish your own persona so that you can't be compared to anyone ells but you. Love the songwriting!

    Joey

  • good work...

    you are going on the right direction..

    :)

  • great job man! the theme and style reminds me of pink floyd. the only difference is the voice and it's still good.

  • like that! ☆☆☆☆☆☆♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

    & so very very profound in message. love it .. Lizzie x

  • Tried to send this to your mailbox, but you accept only from friends, so will post here:

    Hi David,came across your videos quite by accident, but sure am glad I did. What an amazing style and voice you have. I have watched Marjorie's Dream twice now and am still in awe. Now I have to catch up on all your videos.

    Thanks for your great talents.

    I am a fan!

  • Thank you slender132. Glad to hear from you. Hope you enjoy everything else we have to offer.

  • @slender132 posting here too.very cool channel!

  • You may want to add early David Bowie as an influence. Amazing talent you have - wow. Keep up the good work

  • This was great! You seem to have the same outlook I do on people. We need to love one another, feel for one another, cry for one another.

  • David and Band...You guys are outstanding. You are very tight with style. That sound very good,lol. You Rock!!!!

    ♥

  • Very cool, LoUiEcHiCk4rEaLz. I like that name. I bet there's not many songs with Marjorie in it. Thanks for watching... :) ~David

  • Man, this video cuts deep for me. My eldest stepson died two years ago of an "accidentally on purpose" drug overdose. He was only 28. He was about the age of the beautiful young boy in this video when I met my husband. Thank God I still have my other two stepsons, and my daughter.

  • Real sorry to hear that,  binkle1. My condolences to you and yours.

  • So sad~~hopeless despair.*****

  • haunting and beautiful

  • I'm continually impressed with your work, David- a feeling that only seems to be growing over time. Best Wishes for continued success and may all your deepest dreams be realized...

    Namaste, Tim

  • beautiful stuff man.

  • great i haven't really listened to that much of your stuff but im glad i listened to this great

  • I love this!!! Another great Purple Tree song! You have an awesome voice, it reminds me of 60s music but I mean that in a good way! :)

  • Another excellent original song - a kind of Pink Floyd meets John Lennon meets Barclay James Harvest.

  • the voice reminds me of The Flaming Lips, very good!!!!

  • Its a good video because we forget that there are people out there who are homeless. or sometimes people you think have it all together really don't. great job.

  • pretty good fella's

    hb~

  • Very good!!!! What emotion! Love it! There's a music festival in Austin, TX next month "SXSW".

    Marilyn

  • Un peu naïf mais pas mal !

    Not bad ;)

  • Love this! it's so emotional and touching.i hope the girl stops the drink.song is fantastic.

  • Song reminded me of a stripped down Porcupine Tree or Mew. I don't know anything about music videos though so I'm not gonna comment that. Nice job.

  • The prayer is to be in the hearts of all.

    People this is a wake-up call love in our hearts for humanity is what we all should focus on. Love And Light To ALL

    This is a great way to show to people the importance of awareness. We all need to open our eyes and hearts.

    Love And Peace to ALL

  • Dear David, congratulations on your new creations! It kinda has a Julian L feeling to it and it seems as if it features my life too. Especially with the girl on the last scenes pouring the alcohol inside the plastic cup so that she could drink it with ease. That is what I do too, and I do it a lot lately. Real situations-real people. Not some kind of a perfect, soul-less model representing an emotion that does not exist in her.

  • I also love the name Marjorie, it's an abbreviation/nickname for Maria in my country, used extensively among villagers. I see your boys there too right David?

    Kisses from Budapest :)

  • Thanks for your words Vr0m0patates.

    The boy in the video was me years ago. :P

    I'm glad you can see the real-life situations presented. Sometimes emotional trauma causes people to hide from the pain through meds and / or alcohol. But as we know, no one can run forever.

    ~ Much luv and wishing you well ~

  • You're right David...

    At least you got a nice, creational way of showing it to the public. I don't. I always seem as the girl "who needs help" rather than "showing that they are the ones who need help"...

  • I understand none of us are perfect, Vr0m0patates. Tomorrow's another day, and Today "we" have a choice...

  • Ok....I did the "demand" thing trying to get your band in Nashville, Tn. What is up with that. The best place for you to play would be the Exit Inn...great, small venue. With advertisements, you could pull a crowd. I will be waiting....

  • nice job dave, sorry so long getting back, just got this today, its like a month old now, wow you is messing up to, , i know 360 was , ? welll righton !@!  great job and sound ,

  • Can I sing with you when I come to USA later in the year? You are so professional..

    I am in Miami soon, but want to tour all the old Confederate States, before taking a damned good look at your country..

    Bless you lads - you are ACE!!!!!

  • Thanks Derventio74! You're too kind :) I'd love to sing with you sometime. There are some fab open stages out this way. Purple Tree moved to Chicago recently so let me know if you make it out here. Sounds like fun.

    Peace and Light :D

  • You are ACE - and what I like about you most is your modesty.. Massive stars of the near future..

  • Great video David. Just a question: are you a Youtube Partner or something now? Because you've got advertisements and stuff like that around the video and that's unusual for most people. =)

  • Thanks bud :) Glad you liked this one. Yeah Purple Tree's a partner now.

  • Well that's pretty sweet man. Congrats.

  • Thanks :) Can't wait to see more of yur stuff.

  • Thanks. Me and Travis would have had another video or two today, but we were unable to hang out today, unfortunately.

  • Didja notice the little bits they filmed backwards.You ort to watch this a few times...

  • gannibus sent me. Thanks! This is great! 5/5 got to checkout your other vids/music.

  • this is kinda dreamy, a lot like Pink Floyd, who agrees with me ?,,the singer looks kinda like Gary Newman. Yep the world is getting scary outside, what we need is an atomic war to clear the slate for a fresh & exciting new start.

  • It's like Meddle and it's conceptual.Totally modern,though.This is one of my favorite cats.

    I can see the Gary Newman thing.I was thinkin'David Bowie.I love 3:05reminds me of some old Who..great vocals and even horns.Electronic drums and a set.Classic Masterwork

  • Look you have it KID ! Just looking to see if you would need to mix a Harmonica player. From Motown. I agree! "Well done video for a very good song" Heart! I'll post One soon! Just a older guy who can queit the Gun fire!In the Key of C Harp! At Midnight! NEW YEARS EVE, In my Detroit ! With a good AMP & MIC! Oh! Some SOUL TOO was ADDED !

    My Hero's JOHN LEE HOOKER & LEE OSKER/ JAMES BROWN / B.B.KING.

    Thanks for sharing! TALL58

  • Excellent as always!

  • David, very heavy tune and video. You capture the essence of alienation. Vocals and music are seductive and luscious. Incredibly well done music vid. Thx. Will you do your own version of Willie Nelson's song A Peaceful Solution? Love to feature you on Willie's Peace site. Liz

  • Fantastic! Thx Gannibus for sending.

  • simply excellent! *****

  • HAD A MASSIVE INTERNAL SERVICE ERROR WHILE SENDING THIS WONDERFUL VID TO FRIENDS,CONTACTS!very sorry you got this 20-30- times.i'm watchibg for the fifth time myself.This Is Purpletree, Dave Perry...the chicks are all over this rocker.Loved that David Bowie look,Dave!Very Floyd,very conceptual

  • Thanks for sharing! These guys are phenomenal!

  • Thank you Gannibus. I am a big 'Meddle' fan, one of my fav Floyd albums by far. I appreciate you sharing this vid with your friends and for your continued support. Gannibus Rules Everyone! Check him out... a Great guy too. Peace... :)

  • good video!

  • Pretty grim, but a very well done video for a very good song.

  • very nice!, i liked everything, specially the meaning.

    Congratulations!

  • David has such a great voice :-)

  • right vid man! hadn't realy seen any music vids like yours since the pink floyd music vids from the 1960s. realy cool

  • srry i mean "righteous" not right silly me

  • Thanks captinBattleship. I love early Floyd, "Live at Pompeii", Syd's early video Lucifer Sam. Brilliant!

  • Excellent tune and video! Very catchy!!

  • like it, just wondering did u use a drum machine or a electric drum set?

  • Hey nos1988josh, On part 2 (no one cares) I programmed a drum beat in Propellerhead's Reason. On part3 it was a real drummer, Mike Kasky.

  • aww i could tell there were real drums in there but some sounded to electronic, good song by the way

  • Great Stuff. Wonderful vid and music. Great to see some Americans saying it how it is, pity more mainstream artists don't so it!!

    Cheers

    Rooster

  • Thanks Rooster. I agree.

  • Great song i love the guitar at the start.

    i love political songs write alot myself

  • I hadn't noticed your giveways on the main page. Wow. That's kind of you. Download I did. I'd reiterate that I'll buy it all when it's available on CD. I don't know what the "but" was doing in the last sentence of that last post I put up. It's a typo. Always - the video juxtaposition is a great part of your artistry. Thanks again.

  • great!
